I bought myself a Christmas present a couple of weeks ago,
a new coffee mug from Starbucks.
This ceramic mug is white and fairly plain, and I could just hear
it calling out to me to dress it up for the holiday :^).

I will draw the lucky winner on Sunday Dec 16 at 9pm Pacific Time.

The little Christmas stocking is made of white linen fabric.
It measures 9"(L) x 5"(W).

The image is Tilda with 2 little gifts.
It was stamped on TAP paper and colored with Copic markers.
The imaged was then ironed on a piece of cotton fabric.

I machine stitched various laces to decorate the stocking and frame the image.

I sewed some pearls and cut-out lace flowers here and there, and

completed it with a seam binding ribbon flower and bow.I also added glitter gel here and there on Tilda.

I have a GDT project to share with you today.
Couple of months ago I won the Photo Inspiration Challenge at Stampalot;
I was asked to guest design in the December challenge.
This month's challenge theme is Treemendous.

I have made a tea-light candle holder as the GDT project.

I started with a cylinder (5"H x 3.75"W) made of cardstock and
fitted a tray at the top to hold a tea-light candle.
I decorated the top and bottom edges of the cylinder with MS edge punchouts
and pom-pom ribbons, and filled the tray rim with WOC flowers.

I then attached a wider circle (5"H x 4.75"W) to the base of the cylinder

and decorated the edge with TH snowflake die-cuts.

I filled the space between the cylinder and the circular base with white felt strips.

I created a winter scene on a piece of 3.75" x 12" white cardstock,

using a couple of Magnolia background stamps and a mini winter forest stamp.
